is he planning his escape from CA to TX?
Got quite the stir at a Central Texas Facebook gardening forum, many were stumped as to what this was. One person thought it was a hot dog, that's how much folks know about growing avocados here!
This Reed seed germinated in the fruit. I decided to have a little fun with some of my wife's nail polish. Looks like fingers coming out of the ground.
Been eating Reeds since June. 19 mos. of hang time and still picking.
Had a very nice visit from a great San Diego grower/member and friends, Shane Atwell. We're standing in front of Reed, Sharwil/Lamb on the left, GEM in the center, Ardith in the back. Pineapple Pleasure, Orange Sherbet and Juicy Peach cocktail tree on the right.
